I Don’t Want To Be That

Nights like This

I want to live to more nights like this. Nights with you close to me ear whispering the sweetest words of nothing. Nights when the wind blows gently and the stars shine bright. Nights when you and I can sit beside a warm fire and just talk. Nights where the only thing that mattered wasContinue reading “Nights like This”

A story of love

They were words not spoken. They were thoughts unimagined. To hide them was inevitable, for you could see them written on his face, you could hear them in his voice. They were smiles faked.Memories disgraced. One could only hope for the best. They were fears ready to be felt. scars of his heart mapped outContinue reading “A story of love”

Signs and wonders an article by Tessie Strawberry
